Photographer's Note

Winter solstice, good news in my ears:)The northern hemisphere has its longest night and shortest day around the moment of winter solstice. Luckily this winter has been quite mild compared to the previous winters in Sweden!
This lamppost is captured on Södermalm, the area in Stockholm were I grew up. Once known as a slum working class district is today a popular district with rising house prices.

Hi Boa, very good picture of this interesting composition with the lamp and shade, nicely captured in this beautiful image with good sharpness, light and color. Very good and interesting job well done, congratulations my friend. Thanks for sharing this beautiful work.

Merry Christmas to you and your family.
Good afternoon and happy week.
Warm greetings from southern Spain.

Hello Boa,
This is an elegant photo. It's nice to play with shadows, and these street lights always make beautiful ones. We know it's winter from the bits of snow and ice on the light. Wishing you God Jul!! :-)

Hello Boa,
This has an artistic simplicity with the lamp throwing a shadow against the wall. I love the snow left on the lamp. very well balanced composition and nice muted colours.
Kind Regards for Christmas,
Ann

Hi Boa,the lamp and its shadow isn't a new idea,but your is very very original and beautiful,with the snow on the lamp and with this very long shadow in this warm light,great composition,i like it! I wish you all the best me too and thanks,Luciano

The subject is simple but with a fine composition and sharp exposure, you have created a very pleasing, artistic photograph.
There is a sense of movement across the frame as the sharp lamp becomes stretched by its shadow and its textures change profoundly on the wall.
